2. Do not place the appliance or power cord near open flames during operation.
3. Always use the electric kettle on a level, uncluttered and heat-resistant surface.
4. Make sure that the power cord does not hang over the edge of the countertop or table, since this can cause

accidents, for example if small children pull on the cord.
